Definitions

  • EP 153 474 describes the resolution of 2- (6-methoxy-2-naphthyl) propionic acid lower alkyl ester.
  • the R-acid is produced by incubating the racemate with lipases from Aspergillus and Bacillus, and in the second stage the remaining S-ester is hydrolyzed with non-specific lipases from pork liver or Pleurotus ostreatus.
  • High sales can only be achieved by continuously separating the alcohol released during the cleavage, which would otherwise have an inhibiting effect on the enzyme.
  • European patent application 195 717 relates to the production of S-2-arylpropionic acid by incubating the racemic ester with a microbial esterase, in particular Candida cylindracea.
  • the ester groups are -CH 2 -C ⁇ CH.
  • -CH 2 -CH CH 2 -CH 2 -CN, -CH 2 -COCH 3 , -CH 2 -COO- (C 1 -C 4 ) or -CH 2 -O- (C 1 -C 4 ).
  • the sales speed is relatively slow. Approx. 30 hours or more were required for a 40% conversion.
  • EP 233 656 also describes the hydrolysis of ⁇ -arylpropionic acid esters in the S configuration with the aid of new bacterial enzymes which have the 10-fold activity of Candida cylindracea.
  • the invention thus relates to a process for the enzymatic hydrolysis of 2-arylpropionic acid ester, which is characterized in that the compound of the general formula I in which R 'is a substituted or unsubstituted aryl radical, is incubated with hydrolases.
  • the compound of the formula I is particularly preferred in the process according to the invention used in the R 'represents the compound of the formula II or III in which R 2 is hydrogen, a branched or unbranched alkyl chain having 1 to 8 C atoms, alkoxy or benzoyl, where R 3 and R 4 have the meaning given above.
  • racemic 2-arylpropionic acids are prepared by known processes (J.P. Rieu et al. See above).
  • the vinyl esters of these racemic 2-arylpropionic acids are prepared in a conventional manner, for example by esterification with vinyl acetate in the presence of palladium or mercury catalysts. (R. Wilsontel, Synthesis, 242 (1970)).
  • the vinyl esters of racemic 2- (6-methoxy-2-naphthyl) propionic acid (Naproxen @) and 2- (4-isobutylphenyl) propionic acid (Ibuprofeno) are particularly preferably used.
  • Lipases, esterases or proteases which are in particular of microbial origin, can be used as hydrolases.
  • Lipases or esterases from Pseudomonas, Mucor, Rhizopus, Penicillium, Geotrichum and in particular from Aspergillus, Candida and Bacillus, but also lipases and esterases from pig liver or pig pancreas are preferably used.
  • Proteases from Bacillus, Aspergillus and Rhizopus, in particular from Aspergillus oryzae are also preferred.
  • the enzymes are largely commercially available or can be obtained from the corresponding sources using conventional methods.
  • the microbial enzymes can be isolated, for example, after culturing the microorganisms on conventional nutrient media using known methods. However, the entire microorganisms can also be used for the reaction according to the invention.
  • the enzymes can be used in free or immobilized form, whereby all common immobilization methods can be used.
  • the amount of enzyme can vary widely. It is selected depending on the size of the batch, the desired reaction time and the type of enzyme and can easily be determined in individual cases by simple preliminary tests.
  • the substrate to be cleaved is in racemic form, i.e. used as a 1: 1 mixture of the S and R enantiomers.
  • the optical yield can be increased by using already optically enriched substrate, resulting for example from enzymatic hydrolysis, crystallization or the like, for enzymatic cleavage.
  • the cleavage is carried out in suspension, it being possible to set a substrate-buffer ratio of 0.1% by weight to 30% by weight, 1 to 10% by weight being preferred.
  • the reaction is carried out at 10 to 65 ° C., preferably 20 to 50 ° C., the dependence of the activity of the particular enzyme on the temperature naturally having to be taken into account.
  • the pH of the reaction solution is also in the range from pH 3 to 12, preferably 5 to 9, in particular between 6 and 8.5, depending on the activity of the enzyme.
  • the enzyme / substrate ratio can range from 0.05% by weight to 100% by weight, but is preferably between 1 and 20% by weight. In the continuous column process, the local enzyme / substrate ratio caused by the concentration of the substrate solution can even exceed 100% by weight.
  • the optical antipodes are in the form of carboxylic acid or vinyl ester and can be distilled according to their different physical or chemical behavior. Crystallization, chromatography or other common processes are separated, but preferably by extraction such that at an alkaline pH the ester is exhaustively extracted with a suitable organic solvent, such as chloroform, methylene chloride, tert-butyl methyl ether, methyl isobutyl ketone, etc., the acid initially remains as the alkali salt in the aqueous phase.
  • the 2-arylpropionic acid can then be precipitated as an amorphous precipitate at a low pH (pH 1 to 4) and centrifuged or removed by extraction with the abovementioned solvents.
  • the cleaved, optically enriched vinyl ester can be reacted in a repeated cleavage according to the process described above with the same or a different, opposite stereoselectivity enzyme.
  • Optically active vinyl esters can be prepared from the corresponding 2-arylpropionic acids, surprisingly while maintaining full optical activity, by palladium-catalyzed transvinylation in vinyl acetate.
  • Li 2 PdCl 4 on activated carbon is preferably used as the support material as catalyst.
  • the transvinylation is preferably carried out at the boiling point of the reaction mixture.
  • the 2-arylpropionic acid vinyl esters have a good anti-inflammatory effect.
